Ingredients
  

  • 1 can chickpeas
  • 3 tablespoon tahini
  • ¾ cup Cleveland Kitchen Dilly Garlic Pickles chopped
  • ¼ cup pickle juice from the pickle jar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tbsp garlic from the pickle jar
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • ¼ cup Cleveland Kitchen Dilly Garlic Pickles chopped, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Drain and thoroughly rinse the chickpeas.
  • Boil the chickpeas for 3 minutes. Then drain them.
  • Add all the ingredients in a food processor and blend until creamy.
  • If the hummus is too thick, add a bit more olive oil to thin it out.
  • Transfer to a bowl and sprinkle with more diced pickles and a drizzle of olive oil.

Notes

Storage
  • Refrigerate leftovers for up to 5 days in an airtight container. 
  • Freeze the hummus for up to 4 months in an airtight, freezer-safe container. 
  • Defrost the hummus overnight in the fridge. 
General Tips
  • Thoroughly rinse your chickpeas until the water runs clear before using them. Otherwise, your hummus will be way too salty and have an odd, starchy flavor. 
  • To ensure your hummus is fully blended, you can scrape down the sides of your food processor with a rubber spatula and blend it again. 
  • When adjusting your hummus thickness, go very light on the olive oil. Only add about ⅛ teaspoon at a time and blend to assess its thickness. Remember, you can always add more, but you can never take it out!
